Exposed: The Bećir Vuković Book Forgery Scandal Shaking Montenegro’s Cultural Scene!
Are you ready for a story that will blow your mind? The book by Bećir Vuković, a recipient of the prestigious Trinaestojulska award, has turned out to be a complete sham! Forged catalog data, false claims about publishers, and misuse of the National Library of Montenegro’s name – all wrapped up in a scandal that casts a dark shadow over the entire cultural scene.
What actually happened?
Bećir Vuković and Radomir Uljarević are accused of forging publication data of the book. The National Library of Montenegro Đurđe Crnojević clearly stated they have no records of this publication. The book is not registered in Serbia either, where Vuković claimed it was registered, and a check with the National Library of Serbia confirmed the book is not registered there.
But that’s not all! On the last page of the book, there are details that are an obvious forgery: the publisher is listed as the Makarije printing house from Belgrade, but Makarije printing house is located in Podgorica. The National Library of Serbia is not authorized to issue catalog numbers for publications from Montenegro, so the number is clearly forged.
Why does this matter?
This forgery is not just a minor scam. It enabled the author to gain unjust financial profit and have his book accepted for consideration by a foreign jury. This is a serious blow to the integrity of cultural institutions and publishing regulations.
Who is to blame?
Besides Vuković and Uljarević, the question remains why judicial authorities have not yet reacted. Forging catalog data and misusing the National Library’s name are criminal offenses that require urgent investigation and prosecution.
What’s next?
The author of the main article announced that he will soon initiate criminal proceedings with lawyer Nikola Belada. Other institutions, individuals, and competent authorities are called upon to react and protect the reputation of Montenegrin culture.
Conclusion
This is not just a story about one book. It’s a story about how forgeries and manipulations can infiltrate cultural institutions and why it’s crucial for all of us to stay vigilant and demand truth and justice.
If you think this is just another scandal, think again. How many more such cases are waiting to surface? And you, what do you think about this case? Is this just the tip of the iceberg or a serious problem that could shake the entire scene? Drop a comment, share your thoughts, and don’t be a silent bystander!
